I agree with you, man. I really do. I tried talking her into a pretty nice Excursion with the 6.0 Powerstroke Diesel a few months back. Would have been a great truck, well optioned, comfortable, had seating for 8, and been capable of towing a nice travel trailer cross country no problem.

I'm still working on it, but she gets pissed whenever I open links to domestic SUVs, and defensive whenever I try to tell her "lack of luggage space, tiny seats, no place to put the dogs if we all go somewhere" yadda yadda. All she can see is the roundel, and when I try to talk her out of it and into something else she is convinced that I'm trying to be a "cheapskate"
